That last photo Mike is exactly why I needed the plastic tubes to re-inflate the Oktober.
Or I could lose some weight...

Looking at that photo I can say that a lot of those strappy flappy bits are now gone so as not to catch fly lines and the mounting system for the net has changed too.
The top back rest now has no bladder and is for storage, which means it doesn't push you forward.
Thanks for posting that Mike.

I think it was a Lancaster Jim, I don't remember him saying much about the war to be honest, but I remember the day that he gave me the helmet.

I used to make model planes and boats as a youngster.
